PUEBLO STEW

Steps:

• Melt lard in a large pot over high heat. Stir in cubed pork and coriander seeds. Cook until the pork has browned, about 10 minutes. Stir in the onions, potatoes, carrots, garlic, tomatillos, green chiles, jalapeno peppers, nopalitos, and hominy. Season with oregano and cumin seed. Add water if the mixture seems too dry.
• Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the pork is tender, about 45 minutes. To serve, ladle the stew into serving bowls and sprinkle with crumbled cheese and chopped cilantro.

PUEBLO WHITE POSOLE STEW

Steps:

• The stew will be thicker and more delicious if you first boil pork bones and then put the broth into the fridge overnight to let the fat rise to the surface. Take off the layer of fat the next day and use the broth in place of water for your stew.
• If using fresh or frozen posole, boil until it pops, and then add all other ingredients, cover with water (or pork broth) and simmer the stew very slowly until done.
• If using canned hominy, use the juice from the can for added flavor. Cooking time may be reduced using canned hominy.
• Adjust seasonings and serve with warm, flour tortillas.
